Estevao’s Stoppage-Time Winner Lifts Chelsea Over Liverpool for Third Straight Reds Defeat

The result drops the champions one point behind Arsenal after a week of exposed flaws.

Overview

  • Moises Caicedo struck from distance on 14 minutes, Cody Gakpo equalised on 63, and 18-year-old Estevao decided it in the 95th at Stamford Bridge.
  • Enzo Maresca was sent off after sprinting down the touchline to celebrate Chelsea’s late winner.
  • The loss completes a three-game slide against Crystal Palace, Galatasaray and Chelsea that ends Liverpool’s spell at the summit.
  • Arne Slot pointed to fine margins and the need to work harder, highlighting cohesion challenges linked to rotation and integrating new signings.
  • Local assessments flagged Mohamed Salah’s poor finishing, while a run of just four clean sheets in 21 matches underscores defensive vulnerability.
